Anyone else starting Clomid on 11/4?

First cycle, 50 mgs. I just bough my basal body temperature thermometer and a supply of Robitussin. Fingers crossed. We'd like to add a sibilng for our 2 year old. I have PCOS and irregular cycles that average 35-37 days; the last cycle was well over 40. It's always a guessing game.

Hmph..I never thought I'd be stressing/wondering about whether I O'd or not or obsess over temps..but I'm not sure what's going on at all..didn't see a really +OPK (got one that was close, only did them 1x/day except on the nearly positive day) but I had signs of O and a slight temp increase today. I guess all I can do is wait and see if the temp shift is sustained and if FF gives me some crosshairs. This cycle is nowhere near as picture-perfect as last cycle. So confused.

My cycle with my son was not picture perfect either so hang in there, there is still hope as long as you were BD'ing that time! I went home in tears and broke down after they told me I woudl not be getting pregnant that cycle because I had no mature follicles, none even close.

Add me to the bizarre dreams, I had a crazy one involving my Great Grandma, a bridge in Mexico and a disappearing BFP on a FRER. Hopefully it'll be a real BFP and stay there when I test in real life and not just in my dreams!

Morning everyone! I slept ok last night and I'm about to get ready for the day. I have a quick question...is it better to take clomid in the morning or @night? What works best for you because I see on the side that it says that it makes you dizzy. Anyway we're gonna have a girl's day...a little shopping, lunch, maybe a movie; if there is something decent for the girls to watch. I hope everyone has a great day!

fab--lots of people take clomid in the evening to sleep through any side effects. I don't have many at all, so I take it in the morning just so I remember, and because it's a lot more likely I can take it at the same time each day in the morning vs. evening. If anything, it tends to make me a little "awake" so morning works out well.

Good morning all! A girl's day out sounds like lots of fun! I had one of those last Saturday. I spent too much money so it's probably a good thing I don't do that all the time! As for crazy dreams.... I've had the craziest of crazy dreams the last couple of nights!! Hope that is a good sign. I know when I was pregnant with my daughter I had insanely crazy dreams. Good luck to everyone!!

Woke up at 4:00 again... After I ate something I fell right back to sleep. I think it's from the shot??? My spotting from iui went away, now it's back. I hope I am not just now ovulating after having the shot Thursday. Guess only time will tell.

fab: I take mine in the morning but I don't have all of the bad side effects from it that other people take it at night to try to avoid! Ditto Alison that it helps me remember to take it about the same time too.

Crystal: Maybe implantation spotting? Fingers crossed! Insomnia could be from the shot!

JALisonH: Ha, me to! My dreams are insane with I'm preggo, definitely hoping that's what that was for me,haha!

Gorgeous albeit a little cold out today! I'm going to a candlelight vigil ceremony honoring Prematurity Awareness day, went for a bike ride earlier this morning which was the first time in probably about four years, haha!

alison_lea: I'm in a similar situation. CM has been EW and watery over the past two days. I feel dull cramping, I felt twinges in my right ovary over the past two days, temp dipped and is up a smidge today and NO POSITIVE OPK. I've been taking OPKs twice a day to catch it and nothing so far...I'm CD 16, took Clomid days 3-7 at 50 mgs...
